MHPG907: Religion, Crisis and the State |
This unit offers an alternative history of religion, by exploring the state religions of both the pagan world and the Christian West (especially Italy and Tudor England). It shows how, ie, by what devotional means, the state maintained that crucial relationship with the all-powerful god(s), who were its guardians and how it placated the gods, whose anger, (provoked by sin, disobedience or other offence) was believed to cause the great disasters, famine, earthquakes, pestilence, and war.
